Keep Cawm - 3D Animation

Hey there,
I recently finished a small animation project that kind of grew out of nowhere.
I haven’t really gotten into actual animation and especially sound design before so this was a new experience for me.

The humor is kind of random, stupid and a little dark.
However, I had a lot of fun with this project and now I’d like to hear what you guys think.
Cheers :slight_smile:

I love the style and the atmosphere. I also love the softness of the swing of the feathers with breathing and inertia.
Well done!

Awesome, m8, those feathers are great!

Incredible work, congratulations.
Love the character, the amazing hair, the materials and the natural lighting of the scene.

@draguu Thanks!! I appreciate that :slight_smile:

@YAFU Thank you!! Yea, the breathing was actually really easy. (I just created a shapekey with raised chest and threw a driver with a sine/noise generator in there. Same for slight body movement.)

@Horizon Thanks a lot!! The lighting is, besides the fire, all just coming from a slightly altered hdr from hdrihaven.com, I’ll add that to the post.

@LoboTommy Thank you! Yes, I’m glad you noticed :smiley: I wanted like a twitching eye building up in despair

@MARTS Thank you so much! Lighting is just hdri and I used a lot of automated animation with modifiers… I’m lazy :wink:
